The Ascendancy of Obama...
and the Continued Need for Resistance and Liberation:
A Dialogue Between
Cornel West and Carl Dix
TUESDAY, July 14, 7:00 pm
CORNEL WEST is one of America’s most provocative public intellectuals and has been a champion for racial justice since childhood. His writing, speaking, and teaching weave together the traditions of the Black Baptist Church, progressive politics, and jazz. The New York Times has praised his “ferocious moral vision.” Dr. West currently teaches at Princeton University.
CARL DIX is a longtime revolutionary activist and a spokesperson for the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA. Carl was one of the Fort Lewis 6 — six GI’s who refused orders to go to Vietnam in 1970. Carl served two years in Leavenworth Military Penitentiary for this stand.
Proceeds of this event will benefit Revolution Books in New York City and the Prisoners Revolutionary Literature Fund, which provides subsidized subscriptions to Revolution newspaper and other revolutionary literature to prisoners.
